U.S. government agrees to settlement with migrant families separated at the border
  • According to NPR today the families won’t receive money. They will get work visas and an interview with an asylum officer. No actual compensation for the years of trauma caused by being separated from your kids or parents. It’s monstrous. The explanation on why there is no financial compensation was that the republicans were against the cost. They are truly evil people. The absolute lack of humanity makes me physically sick.

  • today’s tools and fidgets
  • After seeing your posts and looking up begleri, I decided to try it. It’s fun to learn, but definitely a skill you have to develop. The tricks look easy until you actually attempt them. I do enjoy just wrapping it around my fingers while I’m sitting around at work though. Thanks!

  • A tip for migrating from Google Photos to Synology
  • It's not a cheap hobby, but self hosting is fun. Learning more about Docker has made it a great way to learn self hosting. I guess Synology is like training wheels in the self hosting community, but when you only know Windows, it's a good introduction to Linux, servers, networking, RAID, and a ton of other topics.

    The units aren't expensive when you compare it to the storage drives. I use a DS918+ which has 4 bays, and I have 14TB drives in each one. This is much more space than I need, but you always end up with more than you expect. I'd say each drive is probably $250 each right now.

  • No, it's older than that I think, but I'm not directly connected due to where my PC is in the house. This worked out perfectly for me, though. The firefox container jumped the speed from about 5mbps to 50mbps

  • A tip for migrating from Google Photos to Synology
  • As I mentioned, it is probably something that most of the people here would think of right away, but for those like me who don't have a wired connection to their router due to whatever reason, this can speed things up. This post was intended to help people like me looking for a faster way to degoogle.

  • A tip for migrating from Google Photos to Synology
  • Yeah I did 2GB files because I expected to download through the browser and didn't want anything to time out and fail in the middle. I never expected how slow it would be though. Moving to the docker container made things a lot faster. It went from 5mbps to 50mbps.

  • A tip for migrating from Google Photos to Synology

    After exporting my photos for migration to Synology, Google gave me 95 2GB zip files to download. I tried downloading directly into my mapped network drive, but the speed was super slow. My tip for you is if you are familiar with docker, you can spin up a Firefox container and map your desired network drive to the container. If you download from the Docker container, it will use the NAS's wired internet connection rather than your PC's WiFi connection. It is a much faster process, cutting it from days to hours for me. I'm sure most of you would have thought of this right away, but after 25 manual downloads, this was a huge relief for me.

    Qbit Manage

    Is anyone willing to share a docker compose and config file for a qbittorrent, qbit manage, and cross seed stack? I'm having trouble figuring out how to get them all to play nicely together.

    What are you Reading? (August 2023)
  • Is that the one with all the complicated relationships? I found it a little too detailed on that point, but otherwise a good read. I wouldn’t read it again though. I read Rendezvous With Rama around the same time and liked that a lot more.

  • Period tracking app options?
  • This is super cool. Unfortunately all the teens are using iPhones and I don’t think I’ll be able to install this. If it’s ever an iPhone app I’ll be the first downloader.

  • Period tracking app options?
  • Aside from what the other commenter said, this is something I’m looking for for my daughter and believe it or not she prefers an app.

    Also, this is the self hosted community. People self host all kinds of stupid shit. Why are you here?

  • Period tracking app options?

    With the stories about data from period tracking apps being shared with law enforcement, I was wondering if there was a self hosted alternative I could host for my daughter. My searches so far have not returned any good results. Thanks!

    Self hosting minecraft
  • Usually you can get to a screen that lets you type in a server address. It’s not on the first page. It’s on the Friends tab I think. The Nintendo Switch doesn’t allow you to connect to custom servers at all either.

  • [Help] Looking for a working Docker Compose for Lemmy using existing Nginx Proxy Manager

    I know everyone is still fiddling around with setup, but I have tried and tried to get my own compose working but have had no luck. If anyone can share their working compose, it would be really helpful. I have an existing Nginx Proxy Manager container serving as my reverse proxy, so I don’t want to install the nginx container in the sample compose either. Thanks!
